💡 High-Yield Exam Concepts:
The Hammer Mill operates strictly on the principle of Impact, where a moving object hits a relatively stationary material.
It is highly favored for continuous operation and rapid action, capable of producing powder sizes ranging from 4 to 425 mesh.
A critical disadvantage is heat generation due to high-speed operation, making it unsuitable for thermolabile drugs unless a cooling jacket is used.
